Clonking?
 
Hi. 53 reg blob wagon..replaced shocks all round and arb bushes ,drop links etc. But still have a clunking from somewhere at the rear. And when driving slow like of the drive, when the car leans or changes angle as my drive is on a slant it creaks on one side at the rear left only. Any ideas what this could be.,? Thx 🤔

Quite often it's the top mount on the strut which wears and causes a knocking noise

Trailing arm/bushes?
Did you replace the top mounts?

Sootbox 26 March 2019 08:12 PM

Yes top mounts are all new as are rear struts.

I had an odd creak on my old WRX wagon that was due to trailing arm bushes.
To work it out I had to grease random components until I found the one that caused it.

standard shocks and top mounts? wagon correct fitment?

Sootbox 27 March 2019 08:38 PM

Pedders , correct fitment yes, trailing arm bushes have not been replaced so may be now everything else has been replaced it’s showing that up? How easy a job are they to do?

Tidgy 27 March 2019 09:23 PM

I didn't think they did a wagon figment? Although that was a while ago. But I had the exact issue one wide track fitment. Had 2 sets if top mounts and a whole new set under warranty before sacking them off for teins.

Not 100% saying its that but that sounds exactly like my issues

Sootbox 28 March 2019 08:37 PM

Yes. Pedders new updated wagon rear shocks... have sent one back already and replaced it. May be another duff pair?

Tidgy 28 March 2019 09:26 PM

I gave up after 3 sets

KYB Excel G can be had as wagon specific. Good for 30k+
